Sunday Bird Droppings: Where the Orioles playoff hopes are pretty close to zero

Hello, friends.

When the 2022 season comes to its end and the Orioles finish however many games out of the wild card race that they end up finishing, there are going to be some losses that hurt more than others - a few games where it just feels like if only they’d flipped those around, maybe things would have been different. Last night’s absurd 11-10 loss to the Astros is an instant contender for that list of games.

This one would have been dumb enough if it happened in April or May, before we had any idea that these Orioles would get into the race.
